    "I'm a fucking idiot, what do I do now?", he said to his wife.

    Geez man, really? I don't know how anyone survived driving before the invention of airbags. Must have been automatic death if you were in an accident.

    Fantasy Football - FoH Auction League 2013

    I'm already prepared for an hour of pausing the draft because 1 person didn't show up. We can't even implement a rule where if you don't show up, we draft for you...because that's just going to screw up the actual season.

    It sounds like that was internal testing though? I'm skeptical that we won't still be using login macros this weekend.

    2013 NFL Season

    That's pretty much the same deal with the Redskins and Cowboys. There have been so many periods where one or neither team is competitive that it kind of cheapened the rivalry. The 70's were decent for both teams. 80's saw the Redskins win 3 Super Bowls and Cowboys kind of suck. 90's the Redskins...

    Yeah, that one is a fucker. I didn't realize that he could sit on any of the 4 walls and cast his large straight line one, as it seemed like the first few times he'd always sit on the far wall. Since he basically flies up in the air and you can't see him anymore, it's kind of a "will I get lucky...

    Carribean Cruises

    I think that's the appeal of cruises for my wife and I. It's a cheap way to go to a bunch of awesome destinations. The ship isn't really the main draw. I enjoy the food, but otherwise it's just a giant water taxi.

    I kind of prefer MRD tanks so far. Honestly, as long as there's a tank there, I don't care. As far as aggro goes, as a BRD, if I pull aggro it's my own fault usually. I generally wait a second after the tank aggro's originally before throwing stuff on it. I'll usually start with DoT's since they...

    Haha, same here. I'm just like...what world? Apparently the server is up. Dunno what the heck the issue is now. Maybe they've implemented a queue for the character select screen?

    Well, the JP servers are down and it's really fucking up my trying to login to Gilgamesh. It sits there trying to find the JP servers and slows down loading the character select screen. Fucking annoying.

    I got booted after a fucking terrible dungeon run (died on final boss with 1 min left on dungeon timer). Now I can't even get the login screen to load. THAT is giving me 1017 errors. Can't get to any servers anymore.

    He'd fix up the roads in no time! Those seem like pretty good decisions in retrospect. I'd imagine this would be similar.

    Not really sure you need 2 bards. Even if one were doing MP song and the other TP, the TP one is wasted since you don't have a DPSer that needs it. I think the ideal party right now is going to be PLD, WHM, BRD, and BLM. Ranged dps seem to be a bit superior right now.

    War with Syria

    Pretty much. Not even really that concerned about Russia. Mostly about what some retarded small player does which gets everyone dragged into a shit show. It has the potential to spiral out of control very fast the second we get involved. And it doesn't present any positives to the United States...

    I want to say it's in the 4-6 years range. Not sure where I heard that, and it's just an estimate. It might've been on the 30 for 30 about players going broke.

    You need a bard! I'm kind of running into the same problem. The fast group of us has already surpassed most of the content. Then there's a group of us in the 30's and 40's who are struggling with shitty PUG's trying to get through the story quest. I dislike that I get stuck on progressing the...

    Just a correction, but we maxed out the FC the first day. So we're looking at having all 3 of them to however high it's possible to get them by Monday, especially since it's a holiday weekend. As far as noobs, there are plenty. I was helping some RL friends with Ifrit and we had a 4th who...

    That was me on Monday. First logon, no problem. Had to relog, and it took me about 3 minutes to get back on. "What the fuck are all these people complaining about?" Yesterday, it took me about 35-40 minutes.

    I was going to say I think that chart is only accounts created since early access. But for some reason I'm thinking Gilgamesh was basically locked during that too. Anyone confirm that?

    War with Syria

    So basically you're in favor of policing the world? Got it. We just disagree on that one then. If someone wants to kill all their people, I could give a shit. Their neighboring countries should be the ones responding to that.

    Fuck it, I hope they stay locked so that when these server issues are fixed, we'll be able to log on much more easily.

    I always like to take my advice from websites that are trying to sell me something. I haven't read it yet, but I can already tell it's probably retarded. Not to say there probably isn't something good in there, but honestly, I've seen so many websites designed exactly like that. Edit: Ok...

    Uh, I doubt anyone in power wants cheap oil. Sorry, but our politicians are owned by business interests. The oil companies profit by having control over the oil, not getting it cheaper for us peons. We paid for it with taxes and lives and the corporations didn't have to do shit. Really, we...

    Cross class hotbar is just something you go into your options menu to enable. It's basically a hotbar that doesn't change regardless of your class (so if you have potions, or gear sets, or chocobo shit that you want on every class). You unlock an extra ability slot every 5 levels for a class...

    I don't know about that. NFC East is a tossup, and the AFC South sucks. Patriots have a much more difficult out of division schedule with the AFC North and NFC South.

    I seem to recall, less than a decade ago, the US celebrating how awesome Syria was for being a democracy in the middle east. How about we just mind our own fucking business?

    Yes, once you complete your level 30 class quest, you'll get a follow up job quest from the same NPC. He'll send you to another NPC who will become your PLD job trainer. You'll do a quest with him and that'll give you your shard. Once you equip it, it'll wipe most of your skills unless they're...

    Composition of that 185 pounds matters. If he's 25% body fat and you're 13.3215% body fat, your calorie requirements are very different. That's why taking pictures and measurements is more important than weighing and estimating body fat. He could be body recomping and put on a half pound of...

    The worst part (outside of WWIII starting) is that when we have US ground troops in Syria and we have a rash of green on blue attacks since the rebels are the same fucks who hate us.

    The first three dungeons are unlocked through the story quest. Just keep doing the story quest until it takes you there.

    That's the only redeeming factor about them. When you get 12,000 exp for 4 minutes of playing, it's pretty awesome. There are probably some fun ones though. I know that one Malboro in East Shroud (SE corner, Lazy Laurence?) that you need an 8 person group to spawn, is at least a fun spawn dynamic.
